Joseph: (Un)Planned Detours →
“The unplanned, inefficient detours of our lives are planned by God. They are common for disciples, and they commonly don’t make sense in the moment. But God’s ways are not our ways because our lives are about him, not about us. He is orchestrating far more than we know in every unexpected event and delay.”

The Kindle Experience — A Personal Report →
“Do not think of the Kindle as replacing the book. Bury that thought. Bury it deep. Then go and hold a favorite book in your hand. Enjoy.

Tumblr Redesign
Tumblr is one of the nicest examples of total design. Great attention to detail in the design and usability. Except I can’t find where to change my theme anymore. And if their login text inputs get any bigger I’m going to need a wider monitor!

Testing Tumblr Some More
I’m testing Tumblr’s interface to see how well the RSS parsing plays with the new WordPress theme I’m creating. (As yet to be seen, by the way.)
This is really just filler text. I’m not really sure how I like the rich text editor. I suppose it’s okay. I’m really used to doing it manually though, like bold and italic. I just like having more control over the...
